Is the [strike]below[/strike] letter below grammatically correct? [STRIKE]and[/STRIKE] If I want to address my supervisor, [STRIKE]say[/STRIKE] is it more polite to use his first name or [STRIKE]the[/STRIKE] his last name? [STRIKE]which one is better and Politely?[/STRIKE]
It depends on the level of formality you normally use with your supervisor. If you usually address him by his first name, use that. If not, use "Mr" and his surname.
Dear Mr Jones,
I [STRIKE]saw[/STRIKE] have looked at the Netherlands Embassy’s website. They [STRIKE]recommended[/STRIKE] recommend that, for [STRIKE]staying[/STRIKE] stays of longer than 90 days, it is better to apply through a sponsor in the Netherlands.
In addition, I asked this question (about getting a visa no question mark here) of some of my [strike]some[/strike] friends [STRIKE]that[/STRIKE] who [STRIKE]spend[/STRIKE] spent/are spending their sabbatical in the Netherlands. They [STRIKE]answered to[/STRIKE] told me (no semi-colon here) [STRIKE]your[/STRIKE] that my supervisor [STRIKE]introduced[/STRIKE] should introduce [STRIKE]you[/STRIKE] me to the department secretary, [STRIKE]after that she[/STRIKE] who will take [STRIKE]you[/STRIKE] some documents from me [STRIKE]e.g.[/STRIKE] (such as a letter of financial support) and [STRIKE]sending[/STRIKE] send them to Human Resources (HR), who will then [STRIKE]HR sending[/STRIKE] send them to IND (Immigration and Naturalisation Service). After that, [STRIKE]you should[/STRIKE] I will need to refer to the Netherlands Embassy [STRIKE]in your country[/STRIKE] here and follow other processes. (I don't know what the underlined part means.)
Would you mind finding the attached my financial support? The underlined part doesn't make sense. How can you attach the letter of financial support if your supervisor is supposed to provide it to you?
Best wishes/Regards/Yours
M.
